I'm a developer who strongly believes in solidifying and building on fundamentals before jumping onto hyped frameworks, languages, etc. The basic constructs of any technology, programming language, framework, etc. are the same. It's only the abstractions that change.

I'm more interested in the "why" or reason/need for this technology/framework/language rather than the "how".

On the coding side of things, it's quality over speed for me. While it may seem that you are saving time in the short-term by churning out low-quality unmaintainable code you are only pushing that time to the future in the form of slow patches, technical debt, etc.

Hence, clean, maintainable code, are things that go a long way in building great software. P.S I'm a big fanboy of the book "Clean Code - Robert Cecil Martin". If you ever meet me, chances are you'll hear me talk about it as if the publishers pay me to do so LOL.

I have worked on the full stack for web-dev but am more focused on backend technologies. Gotta be a T-shaped developer nowadays.
